about

Written August 1998 / November 1999

lyrics

By 1910, I was ready to start again
I was just a fraction of a lesser man
Lord, I was weathered well beyond my years
Just a victim of circumstatial fears

Lord, I used to be so very old
I used to think there was so much to know
But knowledge is just a stepping stone
And halfway worthless when it's on its own

Each new creation fit to serve a soul
Offers another dose of desolation row
Every new pop trend absorbs another brain
Energy wasted down the entertainment drain

Mistakes abound, parade as policy
Currency worshipped by a peasant sea
Doctrines of death all abundant as the breeze
Guessing jesters don the guise of expertise

It's a mystery, it is a forest fire
Selected voices from a demon choir
You can hear 'em sing

Twice as young as I was before
Just an apple reborn from the core
All my mistakes project a pleasant ring
I know enough to know I don't know a thing

Saving grace outside the open door
And I don't believe the evil I deplore
To understand is to satisfy
It's such a freedom to know I'll never die

And I'm almost free
I'm almost free
